Help Isha through 10 rounds of treatment for stage 2 breast cancer

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Indore Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Isha was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in June. The oncology team at Indore Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Isha is 31, worked as a bank teller until June, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Indore Cancer Centre 3 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,100 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $530 • Scans and lab work: $110 • Transport to Indore Cancer Centre: $125 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100 • Household costs while unable to work: $235 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Kshitija

Updates from Kshitija

  1. Update from Indore: we've started the first stage. We're at 23% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Update from Indore: I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. We're at 10% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($105 in total) I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
